I have a playlist from playlist.com, is there anyway to get it to continously play while browsing through the website, instead of only playing on the homepage (where I pasted to code.) I would like for the music to play on all the pages, continously, not start over everytime you click on something different, is it possible?

You can list instructions below that player that indicates if the alumni are interested in listening to the music throughout the site to click on "POP OUT PLAYER" at the bottom of the actual player and it will open in a separate window allowing them to listen while viewing your entire site, anywhere on the web, while they're reading email, or when they're washing the dishes!!! LOL

I didn't even pay attention to the Pop out Player, I had already deleted it. Is there anyway to make it default to the pop out player?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm......

When you click on Edit Site Pages, and then click on your Edit button next to Home Page, we could add a little box there where you could paste in your Playlist.com code. If code is in there we could default the system to open up your home page in your regular browser window, and open up the Playlist.com player in another window. This way the music would play the entire time somebody is on the site without the user having to click on the Pop Out Player link. Would anybody like to do it this way instead?

Whenever I visit websites, I find it extremely annoying that music turns on automatically because then I have to search for the icon to turn it off. People could be at work or somewhere else they shouldn't be listening to music.

I have music on one page and the title describes it as 80's music etc.

I chose to give classmates the option to listen to it or not.

"....default the system to open up your home page in your regular browser window, and open up the Playlist.com player in another window"
I like that idea. I guess all it really does is save you a click. I like the idea of it popping up automatically, but Cathy has a good point too. People could be at work. At least if it pops up in seperate window they could close it out quick.

Would that be considered a Pop Up window that could get blocked by a Pop Up blocker?

The playlist.com player DOES already contain this option as mentioned earlier...AND it works great

Yes, it would be a pop up window that would get caught by a popup blocker. So is the Pop Out Player on Playlist.com's interface though.

If our "auto window" got caught by a popup blocker, then the user would not see the Playlist at all and would have no option for opening the window again. Maybe it's not a good idea. Thus I would say use Playlist.com, and auto play or not auto play according to your own personal preference.

Hmmm...i don't think the plylist Pop Out Window is considered a Pop Up window as it is user initiated... I know that on my computers the window gets opened and I have a Pop Up Blocker on

PS - Now I gotta go try it again just to make sure YUP...Works

Some popup blockers have some intelligence built in -- i.e. they try to discern when you really intended to launch a popup window, and when you didn't. Thus based on the specific popup blocker installed you could get different results.

Thanks everyone, for your help. I ended up copying the web address of the playlist and hyper-linked a picture of a speaker and added text, click hear to hear songs from 99, that way people have a choice to listen or not. As long as everyone has a media player, it should work.

Essentially what you have done is an excellent work around. What you have done goes ahead and produces the Pop Out Player in it own window, and it frees up space on your website page (no playlist.com player displayed IN website area)...brilliant I just might steal that idea...only problem (if you can call it that, is no auto-play once you open website or specific page).

I originally wanted the auto start, but realized just because I liked it didn't mean everyone else would. I made sure they couldn't miss it though, it is a big picture and large bold text right at the top of the page!

Ok, so I don't understand. I, too, deleted the Pop Out Player box. I would like the music playing continually. I don't understand the whole default thing and I don't want to mess up what I have going ( and I could do that easily Would it just be easier to delete the present playlist and create a new one keeping the pop player box visible?????

Yes

Thanks Derry.. For me, yeah. I redid the playlist( one song now for homepage)...still working on the pop out...Looking to see how it looks on other forums....I'm slow, but steady...Thanks again, Bonita
